2010 Mercury Grand Marquis turn signal

Note:The parking lamp/turn signal bulbs should not be removed from
the lamp until just before a replacement bulb is installed. Removing the
bulb for an extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb
performance. Contaminants may enter the headlamp where they can
settle on the lens and reflector. Never turn the lamps on with the bulb
removed.
Replacing tail/brake/turn signal lamp bulbs
The tail lamp, the brake lamp and the turn signal lamp bulbs are located
in the tail lamp assembly. Follow the same steps to replace either bulb.
1. Make sure the headlamp switch is
in the off position, then open the
trunk, remove pin-type retainer and
carefully pull the carpet away to
expose the lamp assembly hardware.
2. Remove the three nuts and the
lamp assembly from the vehicle.
3. Remove the bulb socket by
rotating it counterclockwise, then
pulling it out of the lamp assembly.
4. Pull the bulb from the socket and
push in the new bulb.
5. Install the bulb socket into the
lamp assembly by rotating it
clockwise.
6. Install the lamp assembly on the
vehicle with three nuts, ensuring the
nuts are flush with the body to
prevent water from entering the trunk.
7. Carefully push the carpet back in to place and install the pin-type
retainer.

Safety chains
Always connect the trailer’s safety chains to the frame or hook retainers
of the vehicle hitch. To connect the trailer’s safety chains, cross the
chains under the trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners.
If you use a rental trailer, follow the instructions that the rental agency
gives to you.
Do not attach safety chains to the bumper.
Trailer brakes
Electric brakes and manual, automatic or surge-type trailer brakes are
safe if installed properly and adjusted to the manufacturer’s
specifications. The trailer brakes must meet local and Federal
regulations.
WARNING:Do not connect a trailer’s hydraulic brake system
directly to your vehicle’s brake system. Your vehicle may not
have enough braking power and your chances of having a collision
greatly increase.
The braking system of the tow vehicle is rated for operation at the
GVWR not GCWR.
Trailer lamps
Trailer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure all running
lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working. Contact
your authorized dealer or trailer rental agency for proper instructions
and equipment for hooking-up trailer lamps.
Driving while you tow
When towing a trailer:
•To ensure proper break-in of powertrain components, do not trailer
tow during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of a new vehicle.
•To ensure proper break-in of powertrain components during the first
500 miles (800 km) of trailer towing, drive no faster than 70 mph
(113 km/h) with no full throttle starts.
•Consult your local motor vehicle speed regulations for towing a trailer.
•Turn off the speed control. The speed control may shut off
automatically when you are towing on long, steep grades.

The mating connector is provided on the end of the power distribution
connector. The vehicle modifier can either purchase pins for the mating
connector and install them on the wires before they are inserted into the
connector, thereby avoiding any splicing, or purchase an optional power
pigtail for the interface. The power pigtail (P/N 14A411) plugs into the
power distribution connector and provides blunt cut wires ready for
splicing by the vehicle modifier.
See thePolice Interceptor Modifier Guidefor more details.
Rear power point - police
The rear power point is a battery access port for police auxiliary equipment
mounted in the trunk. It is capable of supplying 80 amps of battery power.
The front power distribution box (PDB) contains two 50 amp fuses, which
protects the power point. Battery access is via two studs contained in an
enclosure, mounted in the trunk, on the right side fender support. The
terminal with the red wires is the battery positive, and the terminal with
the black wire is the ground. Remove both fuses in the front PDB before
removing the cover to the rear power point. Ensure load devices can be
turned off, and are switched off when reinserting fuses.
WARNING:Under no circumstance should the rear power point
cover be removed without first pulling the two fuses in the front
power distribution box. Removing cover without pulling fuses could
result in an electrical hazard, and result in personal injury. Shut off
load devices before inserting fuses.
